[Lafayette] HE-30/HE-10 correction needed

[Ron via Lafayette]

You guys are sharp. Yes, the HE-10 has been described as an "improved" S-38. Both the HE-10 and HE-30 were 9 tube / single conversion radios. Although my HE-80s had 14 tubes, they were still single conversion below 6 Meters.
All my HE-80s and HA-225s, had the typical Lafayette grayish/blue color. I also have 4 HE-73 Precons (just sold one) and these are the same color as the HE-80 and they are also made by Trio.....

And the HE-10 had a real BFO, not a regenerative IF stage. The S-meter on the HE-10 was a "real" meter -- not a hard to read edgewise meter. Interesting that the HE-10 was marketed more as a kit (KT-200, I believe) while the HE-30 was offered more in the wired version, although kit version was available. Big issue with the HE-10 was it LOOKED like an S-38, but was a much better rcvr. Many thought it was a "Japanese knockoff" of the S-38. Both were a bit drifty on the highest frequency band. --Mike, WV2ZOW

A correction is needed to the post describing the HE-10 vs. HE-30, wherein the poster wrote that the HE-10 & HE-30 were essentially the same receivers albeit with a different tube layout. Please note that in addition to containing a slide-rule dial with bandspread calibrated for the 80 - 10 amateur bands, the HE-30 had a Q-multiplier; which was lacking in the HE-10.
